I'm already almost completely over the crud. Now my mom has the same symptoms. She's recently had the pfizer vaccine, so this is a bit odd. Maybe I had a false positive, and it's just the summer cold I thought it was to begin with.

My mom is having serious health issues which began about a month after she had the pfizer vaccine.

A friend who after 4 years, got his kidney transplant and is doing well, had to wait, Doctors orders, to get his second shot now has just 50% of his returned to normal immune system. He and his Mrs. no longer make their 2 trips per week to the Casinos to play the machines. He is afraid to be around people.

The missing link in the COVID vaccine equation
By Terry Paulding

Before I get to the missing link subject of this article, I want to be clear that I think there’s a broader missing link in the leftist brain. That link is for logical thinking and truth recognition. We’ve been asked — no, it’s demanded of us — to ignore critical thought for so long, that some people have forgotten how to think and question. We all need to exercise our minds, and be vocal, too.

The specific missing link I’m talking about is in the COVID dialogue. As I watch California attempt to send its populace into another panic over the Delta variant, I realize that much angst could have been (still can be) avoided if we do one simple thing: Even if you staunchly believe all the COVID news, believe (erroneously) in the safety of the vaccines, believe (erroneously) that masks are a help in stopping the spread, and respect the (craven) people and government entities providing all this information, there’s a piece of the jigsaw that’s been purposely left out of the box.

That piece? Antibody testing. This is the test that will tell if you’ve had COVID and, therefore, developed natural antibodies. We know that people who had the virus have antibodies, which do a fine job of preventing them from getting COVID again. Those who have already had COVID are also the people who have had the worst reactions to the shots. I want to be clear about one more thing here – I’m talking about adults. In my humble opinion, given that children don’t succumb to COVID infection, they should never be vaccinated for it.

About 34 million people have had, and survived, COVID. The death rate from those who had the virus is between 1-2%, and that number reflects primarily the elderly and people with co-morbidities. Nobody who survived COVID needs to have the vaccine.

If you have antibodies, they are better than having had the jab, in terms of keeping you from further infection. A large percentage of people who’ve had the shots are getting “breakthrough“ cases of COVID. Vaccines certainly don’t protect everyone, so the claim that they do is a blatant lie.

The logical sequence of events, from the start of the big vaccination drive, should have been (1) get your antibody test and then (2) if you don’t have antibodies, get the vaccine if you want it.

A “vaccine passport,” is simply a form of government control. Without it at this point, we are punished by being excluded from most activities of a fun nature, things such as concerts, cruises, etc. Instead of a vaccine passport, if they switched to an Immunity Passport, the dread millions of us have of taking the shot would be allayed. It shouldn’t say whether you have had a vaccine, it should simply say whether you have immunity to COVID. That is “equity” in the realm of health care, even under the current draconian system.

The test, per WebMD, is a simple finger-prick blood test done at a lab. The three-page article is not dated, but one might assume that WebMD keeps its articles relatively up-to-date. It mentions that the government is “looking for” 10,000 people to get this test, to determine how many people have had COVID without knowing it. It adds a link to email the NIH to participate in this study. It says the test is “claimed to be” 100% accurate, and that the government monitors such facts. One further thing it talks about is the donation of Convalescent Plasma, which has been shown to help with treating people with COVID. Again, that’s something that has seemingly fallen by the wayside in the vaccination push, but its website, at least, still exists.

This antibody test, to clarify, is not an alternative to the Coronavirus test. That one is advised if you think you’re sick and want to be sure it’s with COVID. This one is for when you think you have had COVID at some point.

From my POV, I’ll be happy if I have antibodies. The Delta variant appears less deadly, and it’s easily transmitted. I’m out and about a lot, and I just got over a few days of being sick with a headache and sore throat, muscle aches, a slight fever – the apparently mild symptoms of Delta. So maybe I’ve had it.

I’d like to know, no matter what, because having all the facts makes an informed decision easier. I’ve been sick, mildly, a couple of other times since the beginning of COVID. Being a healthy person, I don’t stay sick for long. If I could get my “passport” stamped IMMUNE, I’d be happy. Since I’ll never take the jab, it would allow me to live my life as a free citizen once again.

The absolute lunacy of not doing what I just suggested is to the benefit of those who want to maintain tight control over society, rather than the people they supposedly serve.

I know you didn’t create this data, but this is a perfect example of a agenda driven, false information statistic. These numbers are based on positive tests results/suspected only. Approximately 45% of those that contract he virus don’t even become symptomatic and are likely never even tested. After 1.5 years of this thing being in the wild, there is no WAY only 10% of the US population had it. It’s virtually impossible. The true mortality rate is unknowable because it would require every person to undergo a test and obtain a result. If we are extremely charitable and double the number of people that caught it, mortality drops below 1% before you rule out the obvious falsely reported deaths. I personally think it is far lower than that.

Australia update: Victoria

Sydney (NSW) and Melbourne (VIC) both in lockdown, due to this highly infectious C-19 B1617.2 (Delta) variant.
Sydney lockdown likely extedned to end of month, now with construction shutdown.

Melbourne lockdown likely to extend to the end of the week.

53,283 tests yesterday in Victoria.
Likely most of those from people exposed to people and places with confirmed positives, eg tier 1, 2 and 3 sites.

The result - 16 new positives.

Contagious?

The average American would not get that. When you get an American to name five countries in Europe you end up with Moscow, and Paris. The American's knowledge of their own history is pretty limited.

Yes, I agree with you.
I would bet that close to half the population has already had Covid. But there’s no way to know for sure. The author is likely just trying to use indisputable data.

There is one. The numbers across the board start to decline big time, sorta like they have been recently. And as I asked a somewhat mentally impaired moron who lives close me, would it be a big deal if 100 million people tested positive for Covid........if none of them died or ended up in hospitals? And of course his answer...Absolutely, it would be catastrophic. Some people (a whole lotta people actually) are simply too stupid to deal with anymore.

Here in PA We The People finally had enough of King Wolf III’s endless edicts and we stripped him of his power. He now has to go to the PA state legislature instead of acting like a monarch with unlimited power to lockdown and mask the people of this state.
